List of beer styles

List of beer styles

Beer style is a loose term used to differentiate and categorize beers by various factors including appearance, flavour, ingredients, production method, history, or origin. The term "beer style" and the structuring of world beers into defined categories is largely based on the work done by the late Michael Jackson in his 1977 book "The World Guide To Beer". [http://www.beerhunter.com/documents/19133-000233.html Michael Jackson's Beer Hunter - How to save a beer style ] ] Fred Eckhardt furthered Jackson's work publishing "The Essentials of Beer Style" in 1989.

There is no universally agreed list of beer styles as different countries and organisations have different sets of criteria. The most exacting and precise lists come from organisers of beer competitions such as CAMRA's Champion Beer of Britain, the Beer Judge Certification Program's local homebrewing competitions and the Brewers Association's World Beer Cup.

A number of ethnic beers, such as Chhaang and Cauim are not included on any of the main beer style groupings.

Some beer terms such as ale, lager, cask ale cover a wide variety of beer styles.

Some countries have distinctive ways of brewing.
